After so many light things I thing it’s high time for me to prepare something more elaborated, otherwise you’ll think that all I’m eating is salad. Oh, no, that’s not true at all. Thus being said I will prove you again that I go from one extreme to the other with a dessert for serious chocoholics.

That’s because few days ago my family of baking stamps and trays got bigger with a new entry, one I had been looking for a while until I found the right one as they were either too big or too small. This one (the one you see in the picture below) is exactly what I wanted,nor too big, neither too small, 22 cm, non stick and colorful. It’s quite lovely to see it. Well, now that I’ve found it, I couldn’t help myself testing it. My desire to eat some chocolate pushed me to prepare something with a lot of chocolate for truly chocolate lovers. Thus was born a disturbingly delicious cake that cheers you up from the first bite.

And as if chocolate wouldn’t be enough, I thought I would like a cream cheese frosting too. Or maybe a chocolate sauce. As I couldn’t make my mind I prepared them both . And it wasn’t such a bad idea as you can see below. I can tell you not only that it looked very good but also that it was quite disturbingly delicious – the cream cheese frosting gives a touch of freshness to the cake which has a moist texture (I hate dry cakes) and a pronounced taste of chocolate and the chocolate sauce takes a simple bundt cake to a next level transforming it into a luxurious dessert.

In a medium bowl whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; in another bowl put together milk and sour cream.

Cream butter and sugar with a mixer until sugar melts and the cream become light and fluffy.

Add one egg at a time and then vanilla.

Add the flour mixture alternating with the milk one ending with flour and mix at a lower speed.

Fold in the ground almond and the chocolate chips.

Pour the batter into a buttered Bundt pan and bake for 55-60' ( test it with a toothpick)

Let it cool completely.

Cream cheese frosting

Mix the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until combined.

Add the sugar and mix until smooth and fluffy.

Spread the frosting onto the cold cake.

Chocolate sauce

Pour the cream into a sauce pan and add the chocolate cut in pieces.

Put over gentle heat and whisk until chocolate melts almost completely;

Add the rum and whisk again to amalgamate the sauce.

Pour into a cup whisking every now and then until cold and drizzle on top of the cream cheese frosting. You can use the rest of it when you serve the cake.

Garnish with chocolate chips and serve.

As you can imagine I used both the cream frosting and the chocolate sauce and then I decorate the cake with few chocolate chips. What can I say? You do not have to do this at home unless you are real chocolate lovers!

The texture is perfect and the taste is divine. You feel the chocolate sauce melting in your mouth together with the cream cheese frosting paired perfectly with the rich chocolate cake. Bite after bite you will crave for more. This chocolate bundt cake is by far one of my favorites!
